Racism impacts all people. In 1959, a community drained their pool rather than integrate. As a result, all members of the community, regardless of race, lost access to the pool and employees lost their job.
Which pools of talent and opportunity have structural racism drained in nursing education and to what extent does it impact the nursing profession and beyond? Join us in a courageous conversation that responds to this question and amplifies the concept of the zero-sum bias--believing that for one group to succeed another group most lose.
This webinar highlights how everyone in nursing loses with racism and shares inspiring ways to create environments where all can succeed. Forward thinking strategies that emphasize Dr. Livingston's PRESS model will guide the dialogue on creating environments where all nurses can thrive.
Participants will:
- Define what is meant by zero-sum belief
- Discuss ways in which racism contributes to inequality and impacts all nurses
- Describe how the PRESS model can be used to create environments where all colleagues can thrive
